List Of Methods Banks Count As Direct Deposits

Below is a list of banks, along with what they’ll count as a direct deposit. This is useful information because a lot of bank sign up bonuses require you to make direct deposits to receive the sign up bonus. Changing where your paycheck is deposited can be frustrating and time consuming. We’ve included the source(s) in brackets next to each method. Note: If Bluebird or Serve show as working/not working then this will be the case for Redcard/Redbird as well. They all run on the same platform (the same is true in reverse as well).
